1.
a person who saves, rescues, or delivers

i wanted to make it obvious that the song wasn't about religeon



"Birds are singing of your pain for ye white laces ye blood hath stained"

i actually like that kind of diction (when i can understand it)

if i made it normal it'd look like this:
"Birds are singing of your pain for your white laces your blood has stained"

it doesn't have the right feel to it for me personally

"Golden Houses (DEMO)" Stream and download

In my mind I see fields of flowers
Tiny birds flying high, and people with magical powers

All our dreams are filled with things we can’t comprehend
Like lost loves, bottomless pits and golden houses

The riverbed is filled with all of my repressions
I think I said that I needed some more therapy sessions

cause the patterns they are holding me down in a bind
and all of my friends they don’t understand the complexities of the human mind

All our dreams are filled with things we can’t comprehend
Like lost loves, bottomless pits and golden houses

What do I got is it a disease spreading through my memories
A twisted order to complicate my already strenuous social standings.

All our dreams are filled with things we can’t comprehend
Like lost loves, bottomless pits and golden houses



the recording is just a demo some voices may be rerecorded i'm having my friend kay do guest vocals, and i'll be adding guitars and possibly some xylophone.


PLEASE VOTE FOR ME!!!:

Sleigh Bells - "Rachel" http://www.indabamusic.com/submissions/show/40040
Gordon Voidwell - "Ivy League Circus" http://www.indabamusic.com/submissions/show/39038

Default "Caterpillar Song"

Stream and Download "Caterpillar Song"

Oh tiny caterpillar
You’re fat and useless
Oh little caterpillar
You’re weak and small

Look at this photograph
Look at this smile
Did you know that It’s faked
Just like the rest in the pile
How could I be happy
When I felt so alone
I was just a bother
Hidden like a dog’s bone

Oh such a puny cocoon
It’s soft and wretched
Oh what a worthless cocoon
It’s gross and cheap

People told me
That I was nothing more than
Crap in the yard.
A little boy with a guitar
They said I’d never amount
To anything
That I was talentless
I couldn’t sing

Oh beautiful butterfly
Alluring and graceful
Oh shining butterfly
You’re now something people cherish and love

It took some time
But now I’ve found
the ones who can appreciate
the sounds I create
I finally feel accepted
I finally feel like I have wings


i'm gonna rerecord the vocals with my snowball mic i originally recorded them with the apple mix bad choice but it'll get fixed.
btw i got 9th place in the Sleigh Bells "Rachel" remix contest i'm getting skull candy headphones and a bunch of sleigh bells merch.

So... Uhmm...

So… Uhmm…

i’m thinking about rerecording all my songs or atleast parts of all my songs i’m thinking about going for a slightly different sound

this basically includes these:

Da Da Demos by Stone Birds on SoundCloud - Create, record and share your sounds for free (once link is outdated i’ll put a strikethrough in)

basically what i’m gonna do for the most part is rerecord vocals and replace some of the drum programs with actual drums and percussion. and i’m gonna try to make it all more natural sounding. this means no more recording vocals at 1 a.m. so if any of you think you want to keep the original recordings i’d download them now

in fact i'm thinking about changing my moniker

I suggest you give it a title "Hero".

Well, a recurring theme is colors...
So maybe go with Tinted Red
or something of the sort.
